Abstract

This book presents the latest evidence-based approach in diagnosis and management of the aging of both individuals and society from a gerontology perspective. Amid significant demographic changes such as aging and longevity, one crucial concern is how to live a long healthy life and how community and company can support it. Thus, this book aims to educate society on this vital issue and promote research that integrates the humanities and sciences that welcomes the elderly into an economic market and considers them the new social asset. The book is organized into three themed parts; Environmental Health, Culture/Society in Gerontology, and Preventive Medicine. Chapters provide easy-to-follow algorithms and critical points for each topic. With the study of preventive medicine and environmental medicine in hygiene, the interdisciplinary systems will be suitable for pioneering new academic fields and innovation. Gerontology as an Interdisciplinary Science is a must-have source of information for academics for environmental and occupational health worldwide. It is also a valuable resource for both new and established researchers and students who seek comprehensive information on care, welfare and health promotion for the elderly. Researchers in various fields, such as robot operation interface and emotion analysis using biological signals of the elderly, will value this book. It enriches the understanding for creators and technical staff for data science/data-based science of the bio-signal of the elderly.
